Nokia will announce six new devices at its October 22nd event

Nokia's Innovation Reinvented event in Abu Dhabi next month will host the launch of at least six new devices from the Finnish company, including at least two new Lumias. This information comes from sources familiar with Nokia's roadmap, who also tell The Verge that there'll be a range of new accessories, with one of them being "pretty special."

Up to this point, the major expectation for the October 22nd Nokia World event has been the debut of the 6-inch Lumia 1520. That now appears to be a near certainty, since we're told Nokia is planning a "large range" of form factors and devices, which opens the door to something even larger like the rumored Lumia 2520 Windows RT tablet.

There's been fervent anticipation for a Nokia Windows tablet pretty much since the company announced its move to Windows Phone for smartphones, and although Nokia has since agreed to sell its hardware division to Microsoft, a late introduction of such a device would certainly be welcomed. It would certainly make for a fine last hurrah before the Finnish company exits the consumer market for good.
